Ken's Deputy 4,462 Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 I want to buy some jabs / drugs. But, they want a script, from a vet. How does this work out, please? Put simply; What's the average going rate for one of those white coated, worthless kunts to rubber stamp a bit of paper? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 50,895 Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 You can probably just walk in the local vet and buy it depending on what it is ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 50,895 Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 Vets are pretty sound over here, they don’t rip the arse out of anything. You can also just buy a lot of stuff over the counter in your local vet or agri store which you can’t do in the UK 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Never charge outrageous prices, always on the phone if needed, and no bother coming out at anytime. He's pushing on now, took a small stroke this year, but returned to work. Like everything else, he will be proberly be replaced some snow flake Atb j 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,959 Posted November 20, 2020 Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 I'm 90% sure the way the government decide if a drug is script or not is simply "Does it work then? It does! Ah well we had better regulate that". I've never taken an over the counter drug that made a f**k of difference. The vast majority of vet appointments end with metacam and norclav that you'll shell out £100 for when truth be told the actual drug costs is like a fiver. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ken's Deputy 4,462 Posted November 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2020 I have very few teeth. But, my heart's fine. Rabbit jabs, Wilf. Strange one, eh? I googled about them and found, straight away, that it's just a jab. We can do that. No need to transfer my bank balance to some arsehole who once told me - in front of a witness: " Dogs aren't really cut out for eating meat, you know. "!!! Yes! That level of 'What the Fukk am I even doing here?!' And, these jabs aren't free. Want five or ten of them? You're gonna feel it! And I need a script to even shell out for them. Ouch!

Then write a script. This new vet charged me £70 for two dogs script was for bravecto , milbemax and metacam. I can order enough for two years worth as I don't give it every month or 3 months I give bravecto at start of tick season and it last through the worst summer months worm them once a year and obviously metacam is for the cupboard. I'm hoping I can get to the point of just paying for the script not the health check . This is my third vet in 2 years, so hoping these are better....but obviously we as the public can't be trusted to weigh our dog and just ask for some wormer or whatever, I probably save nothing by buying online, but it makes me feel better , I hate being ripped off, and vets are professionals when it comes to that.... What vet you using mate? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
